Today’s steal, Farmhouse by October Afternoon is nothing short of fresh and fancy free, like a lazy summer afternoon laying on your back watching the fluffy clouds for animal shapes. Now if you’re like me and those lazy afternoons in reality consist of chasing kids out of the flower beds, breaking up sibling fights and cleaning up a gallon of bubbles spilled in the entry way, then the mere opportunity to create with Farmhouse is the refreshing break that we all deserve.

I had so much fun working the the subtle springy hues of the Farmhouse collection.They paired perfectly with a photo of my sweet girly that recently broke her elbow.

The embellishments in this collection are so much fun! I wanted to keep adding and adding and adding!

While I may be a little late to the October Afternoon party, thanks to ScrapbookSteals, I’m here to stay! LOVE!
